The video, which depicts chaos on the roads, shows frustrated commuters stuck in the jam as people are seen coming out of their vehicles, trying to navigate the gridlock.

According to the individual who recorded the video, the incident was triggered by a confrontation between the police and a container truck driver.

The person narrating the video told that the police officer allegedly took ₹2000 from the driver of a container truck before hitting him.

As the video continues to circulate, social media users have responded with a mix of disbelief and anger, calling for accountability from both the police and the driver.
